MultiModemDSVD Quick Start Guide

Step 1: Mount the Feet

The modem comes with a strip of self-adhesive plastic feet,

which you can optionally mount on the bottom of the modem.

To install the feet, simply peel them from their paper strip and

press them into the recesses on the bottom of the modem.

Step 2: Change the Speaker Jumper

To change the speaker jumper, see your User Guide.

Step 3: Connect the Modem to Your System

Placing the modem in a convenient location, connect it to

your computer’s serial port, to the telephone line, to AC

power, and, optionally, to your telephone. For voice

operations, connect it to the supplied headset or, optionally, to

a microphone and a speaker or sound card.

PWR RS232 PHONE LINE

MT5600DSDV only

MultiModemDSVD Quick Start Guide

RS232 Connection

Plug one end of the serial cable into the RS232 connector on the

modem and the other end into a serial port connector on your

computer, such as COM1 or COM2.

Line Connection

Plug one end of the phone cable into the modem’s LINE jack and

the other end into a phone line wall jack.

Note: The LINE jack is not interchangeable with the PHONE jack.

Do not plug the phone into the LINE jack or the line cable into the

PHONE jack.

Phone Connection

For voice-only calls, you can optionally plug a telephone into the

modem’s PHONE jack.

Speaker Connection (MT5600DSVD only)

Plug the speaker plug of the supplied headset into the SPKR jack

on the side of the modem. Optionally, use a 1/8-inch-plug male-to-

male stereo patch cord to connect the SPKR jack on the side of

the modem to the LINE IN jack on your sound card.

If you do not have a sound card, you can plug an amplified

speaker directly into the SPKR jack.

Microphone Connection (MT5600DSVD only)

Plug the microphone plug of the supplied headset into the MIC

jack on the side of the modem. Optionally, plug an unamplified

microphone into the MIC jack. The microphone should have a 1/8-

inch mini plug.

Power Connection

Plug the power supply module into an AC power outlet or surge

protector. Plug the power supply’s cable into the PWR jack on the

modem.

For protection against power surges and other transient voltages,

we recommend that you plug the modem into a surge protector

rather than directly into a wall outlet, preferably one that provides

protection against electrical spikes on the telephone line as well as

on the power line. Please note, however, that not even a surge

protector can guard against damage from a nearby lightning strike.

For maximum protection during an electrical storm, you should

unplug all your computer equipment.

MultiModemDSVD Quick Start Guide

Note: Use only the power supply supplied with the modem. Use of

any other power supply will void the warranty and could damage

the modem.

Power-On Test

Test the modem by turning it on (a power switch is located on the

right side). When you apply power, the modem performs a

diagnostic self-test, indicated by several indicators flashing for a

second or two, after which the 56 indicator should light. If this does

not happen, check that the power switch is on, the power supply is

solidly connected, and the AC outlet is live. If these measures do

not work, see Chapter 5 of the

User Guide

, “Solving Problems.”

Step 4: Install the Modem Driver

If you use Windows 98 or above, you must install the modem

driver, which is installed using the Windows Plug and Play feature.

Follow the four-step procedure below. If you use another operating

system, see the User Guide.

1. Make sure your modem is connected properly, and then turn on

your computer. Windows should detect your new modem and

open the Install New Modem wizard.

2. Insert the MT5600DSVD System CD into your CD-ROM drive,

and then click OK.

3. Windows installs and configures the modem.

4. Click Finish to exit.

For Windows NT, the Install New Modem wizard presents one

additional prompt before Step 2. At this prompt, select Don’t

detect my modem; I will select it from a list, and then click

Next. A dialog box with a list of manufacturers and a list of modem

models appears. Select your modem. Continue with Step 2 above.

Step 5: Install Data Communications Software

Data communications software is designed to send and receive

messages. Multi-Tech includes PhoneTools communications

software with your modem. However, the modem will work with most

data communications software. To install PhoneTools, insert the CD

into the CD-ROM drive; click the PhoneTools icon. You will be

asked to choose your language. The software automatically loads

onto your PC.
